CTO of Suited — an AI-powered, assessment-driven recruiting network that helps professional services firms accurately, confidentially, and equitably discover and place early-career talent.
Previously co-founded an AI recruiting startup focused on removing bias from hiring — building systems that predict candidate performance without measuring attributes that cause adverse impact. Before that, earned a Ph.D. in Computational Science, Engineering & Mathematics from the University of Texas at Austin, with a focus on machine learning.
I believe AI is the most powerful tool we have for fixing hiring — creating more opportunity for candidates and better outcomes for firms. My work sits at the intersection of machine learning, security infrastructure, and building teams that ship.
